Parent Survey – Results

The table below shows thousands of parent survey results for hundreds of schools. To view your school or a subject, simply type your school name or subject into the Search field. You can sort from there. If you don’t see your school, it is either because we don’t currently have programs there or that school does not allow permission to share the survey questionnaire with parents.

As of March 1st, 2019, we have received are 3,005 responses with an overall average of 4.58 out of 5.00 possible. The table below includes all surveys since Jan. 1, 2018 (our tech doesn’t allow 3,000+, so we whittled it down).

I thought I would let you know that we were really disappointed in this course. It seems, from the viewpoint of our son who attended, it wasn't very interactive. It sounded like it was more coding on a computer rather than robotics and putting things together to work. He was very bored in it. And we were hoping to get him interested in robotics, but, this course definitely did not interest him. I thought I would let you know because we do a lot of afterschool classes, and I always like to see new ones being offered. Unfortunately, we cannot recommend this one.

My child really enjoyed this class. there were times when I thought the kids weren't being watched and there was one kid who was very wild with his sword. overall I thought that John did a good job, but needs to watch the kids more closely. I would also say it was difficult for the beginners and the more advanced students because there was only 1 instructor and a lot of kids.

On the first class, a rep for the class asked me to watch the group until the teacher could be there. I am a teacher in the building so I was not able to accept. There was another adult that was asked, then it seemed that the teacher was able to come on time. That same day, I was told that class would go later because the teacher was late (in order to get the full time we signed up for) and when I showed up at the time the first person told me to come, the class had been over for awhile and my daughter was waiting. The teacher told me that she wasn't going to have class later, it was a miscommunication. There was another day that was cancelled due to teacher illness, I asked if there would be a makeup because we paid for this class and nobody got back to me.At the end, I was told to come at 3:50 for the recital. When I showed up at 3:50, the girls were already dancing, and after they finished the teacher announced that "since I was late, they'll do the first dance again". I was mortified that the teacher called me out, when in fact I was on time and she started the recital early. I feel badly that this didn't go well, as I enjoy the convenience of having dance right after school for my daughter, but I will not be signing her up again.

Our son like the class. He practiced working with a partner and following instructions. He got frustrated a few times when he tried to get ahead and things didn't work out, but that was a good learning moment. The communication with the school could have been better. The school didn't know who was in the class or where they were to go when I checked on the day class started. Letting them know details sooner would be helpful. It was a bit confusing.

My son really enjoyed this class, and especially loved getting the chess dollars and cashing them in for a trophy at the end of hte course- so fun! I did ask him after each class what he learned, and it didn’t seem as though much content was taught. He just said that they played games against different people. Of course that’s fine, i just would include that in the description of the course, as it was a bit misleading. Other than that, the teacher seemed friendly and kind and at pick-up the kids were happy and enjoying chess which was neat to see. 🙂

My child has played chess for multiple years now, and he felt the instructor did little to challenge him. He felt it was all very remedial, and was bored. He liked being challenged with worksheets, but wasn't given any. There are many other things that my child found disappointing about chess class this fall....he does not want to take after-school classes any longer. He said if his instructor made an effort to challenge him like his last instructor did....he'd want to stay in chess class. 🙁

He really like the Chess instruction, thinks the instructor provides great lessons and information. Enjoys getting to play against other students. Although we love the chess portion of the class we find the management of student behavior lacking to the point that we question returning to the class. We continually experience issues with other student taking our child's prizes or awards and when I addressed it with the instructor acted like he is aware that this happens and his suggestion was to have my child do a better job of putting his stuff away so it is not accessible for other kids to take. Our child then began putting his items in his back pack but that didn't deter kids from again taking a chess prize out of his back pack. It's very discouraging for him to have every thing he earns from his hard work in class taken and when we address it the responsibility is put on us rather the doing something to make it clear that taking an item from another student will not be tolerated in the class. His chess skills have improved to the point that I no longer win ever game of chess we play together.

There needs to be more supervision with regard to sportsmanship. My son played in the K-1 group. During one match and after another, his opponents verbally taunted him. I could hear it from the viewing area.Having the gym open was a great idea!Also, your promotional materials for summer camp say something about “beat your dad” at chess. What about mom?

It was manageable, but with the gym right across from the cafeteria, and the gate down to block off most of the rest of the school, it had a bit more of a cramped feeling than most of the other venues where your chess tournaments are held. Organizationally, it went off fantastically as it always does.

The class was too large, and the age range of participants too broad to accommodate the younger participants. Groups were often created where a portion of the participants were working with a child as the “instructor.” Frequently participants who were not consistently winning were spending large portions of the class sitting and watching, but not participating or learning. My son was so excited to try this activity, and it was a huge dissappointment, and moreover an enormous waste of money. I wish we had not signed up for this class, and will not be doing this activity in the future. John was friendly, and other participants parents seemed to be very pleased with him. However, he provided very little feedback or actual instruction from my perspective.

My daughter did not enjoy this round of soccer due to some 'bigger boys' (her description) in the class. After day 1 she asked me to not go again - saying some bigger boys were pushing and shoving a lot and getting in trouble with the coach. It did not help that she was also the only girl in the class which intimidated her (along with being the youngest grade). This is no reflection on Zach at all but wanted to provide direct feedback. She did not complete the course which was disappointing as she loves soccer and had a good experience with the first course in the fall. I would have her try again if I knew there were other girls her age also signed up but will not sign her up again unless I know that. Appreciate the survey opportunity to provide feedback.

My children really enjoy John. The class itself is too big of a mix of experiences. It makes the ratio of teacher to student too big and not enough 1:1 time. There is a boy in class Brendon (sp?), who had lots of physical fits, injuring other students, throwing chairs and equipment. He should have been asked to leave and dealt with more appropriately. He was allowed to stay and every week he injured someone. If that happens again, that boy is now old enough to be arrested and I will call the police.

Nathaniel did a nice job, but it was difficult for him to watch and coach everyone because of the class size. There was a Mom who tried to assist (who didn’t know anything about fencing) with the best of intentions, but my son hated that this other kid’s Mom was telling him what to do. It was a really awkward situation that led to my son’s overall lack of enthusiasm with the experience.

Our Kindergartner has been excited about this program from the start and seemed to learn more each week in terms of thinking ahead and strategy. It has also been helping him learn that you don't always win everything, and that is important too. Only thing that was confusing us was what the chess dollars were and if there were for later use or reward? Also, some sort of end of session feedback might be nice about what the teacher observed to help parents continue to work on even general, if not chess-related, skills

He did two of the junior robotics classes back to back and enjoyed the first one a ton! We thought the second one would be different. It sounded like it was the same, so he didn't enjoy it the second time as much.

Despite his obvious frustrations with losing some matches, particularly early on, my son Ty still enjoyed the tournament. As a parent, I thought it was great and hope that in the future the Des Moines area could have a "holiday tournament" sometime between late November and early January like the Twin Cities. I know that the numbers of participants has not grown to the same levels as in Minnesota, but I still think many students would enjoy a tournament and electronic scoring twice a year. Thanks.

I would have liked to have 100% of the time dedicated to dribbling work. To my understanding, time was spent on soccer related strength training exercises and some children also spent time as goalie. I think in terms of developing players, activities centered around dribbling would have been the most beneficial.Also, two of the days that were advertised for the program were not actually offered due to the schools spring break and an school wide "earned" school off day. Factor in 1 snow day cancellation and I received roughly 60% of the classes I had signed my son up for. Due to this factor, I will probably not be enrolling my son the next time around. He did enjoy his time in the program however, but I can find more value with other programs elsewhere.

My son has been in this Chess class for the past two years. During this time, he’s had at least 5 different instructors. This instructor, Craig Heirigs, has been by far the BEST chess instructor he has had. Criag keeps the group under control, interacts with each students in an engaging way, and creates a positive environment. We are extremely disappointed that Craig is not the instructor assigned for this next session. Craig has been with this group for hte past few sessions, and it can be disruptive when the instructors switch in and out throughout the year. We wish Craig would be reassigned to finish out the year with this group.

My son really liked Will. He was a great instructor. The only complaint my son had is that he wished the class lasted longer, as one hour was never enough time to finish the project he was working on. The fact that he wanted to stay there longer is a testament to how much fun he was having.

I had to drive my son there from a different elementary school because it got cancelled at our wchool where i signed him up. I stayed to wait, was not approached by staff until 30 minutes into class. He spent most of his time attempting to control kids, which wasn't working. Frustrated that I spent so much money for this class. He literally played/build legos for 20 minutes of 60 minute class. Waste of my time and money. My son was one of two that was actually listening to Will. He stayed every class was like that, and didn't enjoy or want to attend again.

It might be nice to rework the "club standings" to reflect the number of fencers present. If a club has a large number of kids represented, then they take top spot, especially if one club has way more people there than others. An standing based on scores averaged across fencers would maybe level the playing field a bit.

My son enjoyed learning more about chess and playing the game. The reason I gave three stars is because ,when my husband came to pick up my son and was about three minutes late along with other students, the chess teacher told my husband he needed to pay him $5.00 in cash. My husband thought he was kidding but he wasn’t. My husband asked if all these other students would be paying also and he said yes. This whole incident wa odd because our school has a system set up where if we are late the school charges us/out account. I talked to some one at our school, they did a little digging and said we would nBe returned the money either in cash or by check but we have received neither and chess is now over.

One problem I want to address, is that my daughter has been very upset that (in her words) "didn't have enough time" to finish fencing rounds in both of the session-ending tournaments she’s been involved with. She felt, had she had the time necessary to finish out all the rounds she had to complete, she would have received a higher-placing medal. I have not been present at either tournament, but I can tell you it's been extremely upsetting to her both times. Can something be done to ensure that all students get sufficient time to compete, so they feel they have put their best efforts toward this important final contest?

My son started fencing for an after school activity and now, he loves it. Coach has been instrumental in his growth and dedication to this new sport. His positive energy and calm and respectful discipline is refreshing especially in comparison to other coaches/leaders that we have experienced. His love for the sport is evident and he motivates the kids to learn while boosting their confidence. His kindness is apparent and appreciated. What a gem!

My son does this purely because of Nate. He does a great job! I do feel some of the “find your own fencing partner” needs more adult encouragement as many fencers sit or wander.

Nathaniel is a fantastic teacher. The kids love it and They are learning values and having fun.

My son enjoys the sessions but they are not a challenge. After a battle we agreed to sign him up for the spring session so he could finish his captain book. That was the main goal. He was unable to finish because the instructor was too busy to help on a regular basis because there were too many kids that needed assistance. I think it is a great program for beginners. We will not be signing our son up next year.

During the first few days of camp, my son left upset that he was not able to complete the project. This was frustrating to him. I feel that the instructor could have done a better job of balancing the groups and offering help to those struggling. On the 3rd day, I spoke with the instructor and that seemed to help. He worked with other children and was able to complete the project. He said his favorite part was during breaks when they went into the gym to play with balls.The instructor did do a good job of making sure that children were being picked up by approved people, which I appreciated.

My son enjoyed this class with the different tournaments and opportunity to play! Chess dollars a big bonis!

The class was stated for room 116. However, when my daughter got there to pick up her daughter the first day no one was in the classroom - causing a bit of panic. The instructor had taken the class to the far front door of the building to release them and the parents hadn't been told. As a busy grandparent, when I went to pick up my granddaughter later in the week I had the same experience. It was extremely alarming to me. If a child is to be picked up anywhere from where they are dropped off we should get official notification from the Community Center who sen the email saying where the classroom was.

She enjoyed the class at a 5 stars. Overall I'd rate the class two stars. The kids made a 'dress' (which will not be worn. None of them fit the girls), a bow and a bag. In the course description it was also mentioned they'd make a sunglass case and 'more'. The instructor shared today that they were done on Weds with projects. Why didn't they make the projects that were in the class description. They obviously had time. II thought more time would be spent on learning how to actually use the machine and the different kind of stitches. They sewed the dress on the first day which was surprising seeing they were going to learn how to sew, but yet already made a 'dress' in the first day. The teacher was very fun and my daughter really enjoyed her. However, the content of the class was disappointing. For $150 I thought they were going to learn how to actually sew a variety of stitches and use a machine in addition to coming home with several projects that they might actually use/wear. I don't think she learned any skills in this class that will carry forward.

My other daughter has done these in the past, and I was concerned about sending a 1st grade girl to the camp, but the instructor made her feel comfortable right away and she was paired with a young boy who she worked really well with. She cannot wait to do Lego camp again next summer (and has asked for a lego kit like the one they used in camp for her birthday). 🙂 I would say it was a huge success. I also have to mention that she keeps telling us how she likes to "modificate" (modify) things once they are put together and thinks she would be a good engineer someday. 🙂 Thank you!

My daughter enjoyed the class a lot and loved making the projects, but the lack of supervision or acknowledgement of problematic behaviors in the class was concerning. My daughter told me how her hair was pulled by a child and that same child on a different occasion reached into my daughters bag and grabbed her coasters and threw them on the ground. She was also told that she "Might be too big for her dress" by another child. I get kids will be kids but I witnessed unacceptable behavior during the parents fashion show by the two individuals that caused my child heartache and the Instructor turned a blind eye pretending to not notice the behavior. It was apparent the Instructor had no control of the class. Witnessing this leaves a bad feeling in a parent. I wouldn't recommend this instructor unless she is given the tools and education to handle disruptive and hurtful behavior and she would feel comfortable handling a child that knows no boundaries.

I think my daughter enjoyed the class... however I felt time management was a HUGE issue. Plus the fact that my daughter came home one night and said she needed to purchase all of the material for her dress... which we ended up spending 4 hours at home the night before the show creating, because they weren't given enough time in class. I think this would have been fine if it would have been communicated ahead of time. She did learn a lot, and I loved the fashion show at the end!

Class was a bit long. Maybe 3 or 3 1/2 hours would be better. Also, one student was a distraction/disruption the first two days, but it did get better the 3rd day. The student said he was homeschooled and maybe he was younger than most kids his age? Either way, it would be nice if there were actual consequences for yelling, throwing things and running around throughout the entire class. Maybe kids need to be picked up early, if they can't follow teacher instructions or maybe they need an aide.

We were so unimpressed with the instructor, Megan, that we chose not to send our son to the final session, which is against our family's rules about completing any session you start. He learned more from a returning student in 10 minutes than he did from the instructor in several sessions. She had no lesson plans, no flow to any activities, did not record anything like sizing of their equipment, etc. They warmed up and cooled down for at least 1/3 of the hour long session and it took an additional 10 minutes each time for the 8 or so students in the course to re-figure out which sizes they were for the different materials. She would play favorites (one returning girl who knew what she was doing), would show annoyance when my son didn't understand something, but she wouldn't take the time to teach him how to do it correctly. My son is a quiet, non-athletic kid, but one who was eager to try fencing. A parent of a returning student (the one who actually taught my son something) let me know that the previous instructor was quite good and she and her son were both very disappointed with this session. Please do NOT bring Megan back!

My child is a returning student and has been a little bored with the new instruction style with this newly assigned teacher. There has been skill development, but the participants haven't actually been doing any fencing. My child is considering quitting fencing due to this. I think Megan is a competent teacher, but may want to consider how she can better engage the students through active fencing, games, and fun activities.

I attended all of the fencing classes and only once did students have a chance to actually fence with their newly acquired skills. My son, who had been excited about fencing, no longer wants to attend as he doesn't get a chance to fence. He does not like all of the footwork training. He is also frustrated as it has taken up to 10 minutes (yes I timed it) for kids to get the correct equipment, some of which is not brought to class. That is 1/6 of the class time that is standing around doing nothing.

My child enjoyed the class, however the instructor didn’t always do a good job of asking sure the students ALL got a chance to build and not just search for the pieces. My child was one of the younger students and when paired with the older students was not given an equal opportunity to build. The older kids took over. I understand the concept of teamwork, but maybe there should be two sections to split the age gap.

Our child loved the legos classes and interacting with kids while learning. One bonus for us parents would be if we would have gotten an update how our child was doing and what skills they were working on each week. From what we were told by our child it sounded mostly like free play with legos. I’m sure it was more than that but that’s all they said each week. Overall we are very happy with the 6 week class.

My son liked the class in general, and while the instructor is clearly knowledgeable, he didn't connect with the students. He didn't attempt to learn names and called them all by descriptions. This really turned off my child. Name tags would have been very helpful. Also, the instructor frequently went off on tangents of fencing and his experience in fencing, which (while related), didn't apply at that moment, and the kids were obviously confused and started to lose focus. Unfortunately, there were often an odd number of students, so the instructor frequently fenced with one student, and the others were left on their own, with minimal instruction and critiquing. A more structured first, and possibly second, session, and with fewer anecdotes, would also improve the class.

From what I’ve been told about the class, the instructor didn’t really instruct, just was there to help find pieces. There wasn’t much learned, just mostly putting LEGOs together. I was told that at the last class, no one was able to complete the build and program their bird because there was no step in the directions that showed how to put in the motor. The instructor didn’t know how either and so the kids couldn’t program their project and instead just took it apart for the last 15 minutes of class. It doesn’t sound like the class went how I was hoping it would, with helpful instruction and a good base for robotics.

Usually my son LOVES these classes. He enjoyed the first one, but during the second one he told me the instructions were really hard to follow and the teacher didn't explain it. The third class, my son built the bridge the best he could following the instructions, the teacher told him it was wrong and appearently took it apart as it wasn't correct. My son was extremely sad as he did the best he could following the instructions and it really just killed his spirit. He begged me to not make him go to the last class. This is the first time in all of our community ed classes he hasn't wanted to go. Not sure we will be able to do this class again sadly as I know he loves it.

We are so fortunate to have Chris teach our kids chess at their own school. My oldest was unable to participate years ago due to the fact that it wasn’t offered at our current school. I wish more students and parents took interest in chess. I’ve heard Ames schools max out the first day of registration! I am wondering if there are other ways to advertise the benefits of chess for young kids. It’s great for them to use their brain to strategize. Also great opportunity to work together and play with others.

The coach did a great job with the students learning the fundamentals of soccer. When the instructor did not show up, my son got very nervous and did not know what to do.

(maybe send out a copy of the school and sitting locations for each tournament? Makes planning on where the kids should go in between the matches, or if the parents aren't crowding around the tables/corridors)- 4th grader was hoping for a better parent-vs-kids dodgeball match.

He had a blast!! As a parent observer, I have a couple of things I noticed. Students who completed their play early were quite loud and hanging around the tables, sometimes in groups, where others were playing, some even sat down next to the competition if it was a teammate. My son found that very distracting. Maybe enforcing a perimeter that "if you're not playing, you may not be at the playing table". I'm sure it's a hard thing to do. No doubt about it! But even the judges walking around could help with it. And then parents that were close by and kids were making motions to them. Parents should know better, but some don't.Thanks!

Want to make sure kids keep getting reminded about the “touch, move rule”, maybe it should be mentioned between each round and reminder to other kids that they should raise their hand if opponents aren’t moving the piece they touched. Also, noticed some teammates/friends sitting next to others and pointing or talking as the friend played. At one point I noticed a dad standing over their child. Probably want to make sure no one is near by kids playing. Was a great tournament and my child loved the opportunity. We have already signed up for the next one!

It was so much fun I would definitely do it again one thing though I did not know about their being 2 types of grips and the first lesson I had I used the traditional one with a straight handle and I really liked that one but the other classes I was given only the pistol grips and I did not like it as much but other than that it was great!

We just wanted to thank you for running such a great fencing tournament over the weekend. Watching the kids grow in their skills and confidence as well as make new friends was heart warming. We also wanted to comment on the referee Leighton had on Strip 6. In our past 2 tournament we have enjoyed watching the referees, but Saturday's referee was outstanding. We believe his name was Pat? He took the time after each bout to bring the fencers together and highlight what each fencer did well and what each could work on for continued improvement. The fencers were very engaged with his comments. We love that he took the extra time to do this!

This was a great event and a fabulous opportunity. We were disappointed that our server n was placed on an electric strip and there was not a French Grip available. While we understand that most fencers move toward a pistol grip, he had not ever used one. The second time he was placed on an electric, he decided to be proactive and ask if there would be a French Grip available. He was told yes. When it was his turn, they gave him pistol and told him to “deal with it.” He said what?! The ref told him he’d be thrown a card if he had anymore temper tantrums. I found this disappointing as I felt he handled what he felt to be an unfair situation quite well. Bottom line: if your clubs are going to train fencers with French grip, have French Grip at your competitions. If the expectation is pistol use pistol in your practices. Overall a great day, but disappointed in the way this was handled. (Get it... handled)

My child seemed to enjoy her. I, however would probably not sign him up for a class with her again. Each time I picked him up she was yelling at the group of children. I could tell she was very stressed. If she felt comfortable talking to my child the way she did in front of me I can only imagine how she spoke to him without me being there.

Unfortunately my son had a not so great experience. After the first class, he said the instructor really gave them to help or instruction and they were supposed to just play around. Then my son missed the second class for family reasons. When he went back for the third class he said he had no idea what was going on. His hand was raised almost the whole time and the teacher really never spend any time helping him catch up. So the third class was so frustration for him, and for me after hearing about it, that we decided to not attend the remaining classes. I know I should have called right away, but life got in the way. Thank you for the survey and allowing me to express my concerns over this teacher. If all classes need to be attended, or don't bother...this should be stated clearly before signing up. I was really hoping this would open up some new ideas for my son, and instead only made him feel stupid and frustrated.

Paddy was a great teacher for the kids. My son learned a lot. One comment I have is while on one hand coaching is really useful to kids, if they are true beginners a little coaching goes a long way and it can make them unmotivated if they are 'coached' beyond their capability. I noticed this at the tournament mostly- in class the coaching seemed appropriate.

Paddy is a great coach. The class this term was big, and we felt that it might be a good thing to have 2 instructors for large b=numbers like that. so they each would have more time to concentrate on students of different levels, some being beginners and some more advanced. Also, it would be good to help the younger kids select appropriate sized gear.

We really enjoyed the tournament and the organisation. Two suggestions: Set up the night before if possible to avoid starting late and help train and provide knowledgeable referees...We had Paddy who did a great job refereeing but I also heard feedback from others that the refereeing was not a solid. Not sure what you can do as far as a solution. Perhaps provide ongoing referee training?

My only suggestion would be to have enrollment be a whole semester at s time instead of breaking it up every 4-8 weeks and having to re-enroll. That’s a pain for parents. Just charge more upfront and let us sign up 16 weeks at a time.

He loved the course. He was excited every week. He enjoyed the Chess Bucks challenge and had a goal in mind. He came home excited and talks about chess all the time. As a parent: The registration included a description of an online access to some chess playing or practice system. Other than this request to complete a survey and the initial Community Ed registration confirmation, I have received NO communications about the course from anyone. I expected some additional information given that there was supposed to be an online access with the fee. I think the cost of the course was high if there is in fact no online tool. It's much higher than other CE courses. I had no communications about the teacher. Our child came went to SACC immediately following chess. I would have communicated directly with the instructor about scheduling changes had I had any direct contact information.

My kids have been doing chess for years and I absolutely am so impressed with the instructors. I do feel like there were too many kids and not enough teachers there to gain control the last two sessions. You can’t teach chess and take care of a class of students by yourself. I’m hoping htere is more help in the future as I think they are currently doing the best they can with the few teachers there are there. Mykids really love this and I hope they can get the most from this class for the price we are paying. Thank you!

My son couldnt really tell me anything they did in the class. He said he had fun and that his teacher was nice Though. Perhaps there could be a better summary of what is to be expected and be very clear about what occurs during the class. It should be advertised that the students do NOT actually receive anything tangilble to take home from the class. I was under the impression that the first few classes were learning about building and programming the lego figures and that the last few they would build and bring home something small to show what they learned. I understand not all learning produces tangile items but that should be clarified in the class description. I never personally saw or talked to the teacher of the class either so there is my feedback.

We usually really enjoy these tournaments as a great way to practice chess in a friendly atmosphere and a great way to build local chess community. Unfirtunately, the last event in Excelsior was an exception. The set up was not great with parents not having an ability to observe the game from the distance, and there were some questionable calls on pairings, and, most importantly, safety concerns were raised without any consequences. On pairings, it was unclear why the top player was matched with a growing but much lower ranked player (score of 490) in round 1. It created an unfair advantage for already top ranked player who should have been matched with someone closer to his level in round 1. It would have been different if they were matched later in the game. My other concern regarding safety was when I witnessed the player hitting another child after the game roght in the middle of the tournament floor, and that behavior was not addressed by the organizers even though it was clearly agressive behavior that’s not in the spirit of good sportsmanship. Players get disqualified in other sports events for behavior like that. That made for an overall very uncomfortable experience at an event that should be a celebration in a healthy competitive atmosphere promoting the love of chess for elementary grades kids. Thank you for looking into these conferns for future events.
